Abstract: In Song Dynasty, there appeared in choosing a spouse a trend which paid more consideration to wealth, prospects and character.This was a new idea of 'being matched for marriage'.And as far as the relationship of spouses was concerned, there existed a social phenomenon of 'virago',as a result,an appeal appeared that husband should be righteous and wife should be obedient to her partner.Moreover,there was a relative relaxed moral environment of divorce and remarriage of women at the same period. In sum,a conclusion can be drawn that the moral practice by Song Dynasty was a transition from one of pre-Song to post-Song,that is,Ming and Qing Dynasty.
